GREENE, Graham.
England Made Me.
London, William Heinemann Ltd., 1935.
England Made Me is mainly set in Stockholm, revolving around the character of Anthony Farrant, a ne'er-do-well of some roguish charm who takes on the role of bodyguard to a dubious Swedish financier, resulting in a series of betrayals and moral crises that lead ultimately to Farrant's untimely demise. The book was adapted for film by Peter Duffell in 1973, starring Michael York as Anthony Farrant, with the location changed to Nazi Germany.
